What does this mean? A. In the case of red meat, the classification is based on limited evidence from epidemiological studies that shows associations between eating red meat and developing colorectal cancer, and strong mechanistic evidence.
These results confirmed that the synchronous fluorescence spectra provide information related to the molecular structure of meat, allowing classification of samples as a function of cooking time & temperature.
MIR has been applied to the detection of microbial spoilage of meat [ 18], classification of modified starches [ 19], apple juice [ 20], and the determination of fungal contamination in numerous foodstuffs.

Their deliberations translated into a new WHO classification of red meat as "probably carcinogenic to humans", while processed meat "is carcinogenic to humans" – in the same category as asbestos and smoking.
